What was done to YOUR rig(XJ/MJ) today MECHANICALY????

[Swamprat]

i don't have emissions in my county, i have no emissions/environmental things on the subaru/racecar. i honestly have no clue how its still street legal either...


also on the jeep i have figured out that my leak, is motor oil. so it looks like my main seal is suspect. yay rear main seal!

Nerf time

I confirmed that the reverse light switch thing in my transmission is bad

 

[Ecomike]

I thought it was 24 years or older were exempt, what county are you in?

Harris county

It was 24 or 25 years. He told me a few months back that Texas was planning to drop emissions testing with the Dynos and sniffers due to cost of the dynos, and a lack of testers with them, because less than 1% of the vehicles inspected are older than 96 now. 96 to 2013 uses the OBD-II link to confirm emissions are OK

That web pages was last updated in 2011

and



Im really hoping you're right Ecomike because I don't want to have to put another catback on my Jeep just to pass emissions when I'm just going to knock it off with some rocks again.

Plugged a leaky tire.

 

[JTM]

Got the 87 inspected and legal again. Texas has dropped the the emissions tests on vehicles older than 96 now

So no more sniffer tests

This makes me really happy, granted mine turned 25 this year.

Makes me happy too! I need to get it done and the county i'm in did require it to my knowledge. Passed 9 years ago but i don't know if it would know.

 

[Swamprat]

i sanded my bumper down a bit so i can make it black!

 

[Ecomike]

Fought an all out war with Renix idle and no start gremlins.

The score is 2 to 2. Round 5 begins soon.

Just wondering. About what outside temps will make that difference? And what oil are you running?

You need to buy my SpinTech muffler. Less than 50 miles on it; it's basically brand new. A bit loud for my tastes, so I took it off. Built like a tank.

 

[blenny]

Is that the low profile square one?

 

[blenny]

Finally got all the mechanical damage from Moab fixed. Repaced the front yoke, t-case linkage, just need lug studs foe my spare shafts, and a new spare u-joint and I'll be good to go. I guess I also need to figure out a new exhaust sooner or later, anyone know if any parks don't allow turn downs?

Same oil i always run 5w30 Valvoline next gen, only has low idle issues on startup when its cold, same thing it did last winter lol
